A misspelled word on a dare board just became a half-million-dollar lesson in memecoin madness. A bounty popped up last week asking someone to permanently ink “$boutywork” on their forehead. A volunteer did it, live on camera, believing the spelling matched the task exactly. But the token that launc
Bitcoin recently climbed back to $63, 000, giving some investors hope the market downturn is over. But one analyst warns that the worst could still be coming. According to his breakdown, Bitcoin is now in the third stage of a long bear market. That means prices might keep falling or stay low for mon
Banks and cryptocurrency firms don’t always see eye to eye. Jamie Dimon, CEO of a major bank, recently suggested that crypto companies offering rewards on stablecoins should follow the same strict rules as traditional banks. But critics say that idea misses the point entirely. Peter Schiff, a well-k
Starting in 2027, Canada plans to add new tax reporting rules for cryptocurrency transactions as part of Bill C-31. This change aims to make crypto dealings more transparent for tax purposes by integrating them into the federal income tax system. The goal is to collect user details like names, addre
Chicago’s mayor has a rule: no campaign money from companies that do city work. But over the years, money still slips through. This time, an IT firm called EKI-Digital—already under fire for possible overbilling—sent a $250 donation to the mayor’s campaign. The timing is awkward. Just last year, the
A well-known chip company just got a major confidence boost after being added to a key stock index. Shares of the firm jumped nearly 10% in a single day after it was announced as the newest member of the S&P 500, a group that tracks the performance of 500 of the biggest U. S. companies. This move co
The two-year Treasury yield is climbing fast and could soon hit 5%, a level that usually makes investors nervous. Fast-moving tech stocks got a taste of that nervousness last week when chip shares plunged hard. The Nasdaq 100 lost nearly five percent in a single day, and funds that track semiconduct
Marvell Technology’s stock surged 8. 85% to $286. 80 in premarket trading, outpacing the broader market. While Nasdaq futures rose 1. 31% and S&P 500 futures climbed 0. 68%, tech stocks generally benefited from the upward trend. The smaller Russell 2000 and Dow Jones also saw gains, adding to the po
Two countries once famous for their openness now treat basic facts as dangerous ideas. In Canada and the UK, quoting a science textbook or reading a Bible verse out loud can land you in court. Canada’s latest hate speech bill, C-9, removes the religious exemption that used to protect people who shar
A Kingston man just gave $1. 25 million to help emergency rooms in the city work better. The money buys new machines that take clearer pictures of patients faster. These aren’t just any machines—they’re the kind doctors say can make a real difference when someone is really sick. The donation pays f
